Chapter 67: The Tangshan Murderer
In the flickering of the flames, the night passed.
Before you know it, the wind and snow have stopped.
When Lu Jian opened his eyes, he saw that the master and servant had both woken up.
There was still a slight flush on the white cheeks of the eldest lady of the Ma family, she saw Lu Jian wake up, and smiled slightly: "Brother Lu, wake up, this thing is really powerful, no wonder my father didn't let me touch it, I was a little out of shape last night, don't blame Brother Lu!"
Lu Jian smiled and shook his head.
The eldest lady of the Ma family took out a jade plaque from her arms, handed it to Lu Jian and said, "You go back to the Ma Temple, maybe you can use it." ”
Lu Jian waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, I said it all, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work out or not." ”
"This can be regarded as a reward for eating your sweet potatoes and drinking your wine!" After speaking, the girl forced the jade plate into Lu Press's hand.
The girl continued, "We'll have to go first, turn back, and maybe we'll see you again!"
After saying that, the master and servant pushed open the temple door that was covered by snow and walked out.
When the girl was about to cross the threshold, she suddenly paused, turned back and said, "Thank you, I was very happy last night!" and walked away in the snow.
Lu Jian was stunned for a while, and there seemed to be the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes and the faint fragrance of the girl in the small temple.
Lu Jian shook his head with a smile, thinking that this beautiful little girl was really strange, and after he put out the fire, he also pushed the door out.
After the snow, the whole world is white, and the snow hanging on the trees is like flowers blooming in the mountains and fields.
Lu Jian stepped on the thick white snow and listened to the creaking sound, and the depressed mood these days seemed to be relieved a lot.
All the way to the north, Lu Jian was not in a hurry, but while walking, he recited the "Haoran Righteous Qi Song", he felt that the aura was running more and more smoothly in his body, and his spiritual power was much more sensitive, and he even seemed to be able to hear the sound of blood flowing in his veins.
He didn't know that the cultivation of aura, every time he ascended to a realm, his perception of himself and the outside world strengthened by a level. The power of self and the outside world that can be controlled has also increased exponentially.
Therefore, there is a strong man in the realm of the spiritual world, who opens the heavens and the earth and points to the mountains and rivers.
Lu Jian is still a novice on the path of cultivation, but he is gradually beginning to appreciate the difference between cultivators and mortals.
Walking all the way, practicing all the way, before I knew it, I had arrived in Tangshan.
The area of this mountain is not large, but it is superior.
From a distance, it seems that a towering giant sword has been inserted into a slightly undulating hill room.
Lu Jian stopped and looked up at the giant peak in the distance, and sighed in his heart.
The small mountain in front of his house is called Dajian Peak, but compared with this Tangshan, it is much shorter.
The entire village at the foot of the mountain in Tangshan is attached to the Horse Temple, and the village's agricultural harvest is also provided for the Horse Temple on the mountain.
Lu Quanxian was not in a hurry to go up the mountain, but walked into the only inn and grocery store in the village and sat down.
He asked for something to eat, and began to talk to the shopkeeper, who seemed bored because there were no guests.
Originally, the shopkeeper was very vigilant and spoke hesitantly, but when he heard that Lu Jian came to the Horse Temple to learn art, he became much more enthusiastic.
He told Lu Jian a lot of anecdotes about the horse temple, and the head of the story was the Tao.
Just as he was spitting, a rough voice suddenly scolded: "Ma Liu, you kid don't want to live, don't you talk nonsense here!"
Hearing this voice, Ma Liu's face immediately became extremely ugly, and he hurriedly ran towards the comer.
Lu Jian also followed the voice.
I saw a tall and fat figure that seemed to be stuck by the door, and then turned slightly sideways before entering the store.
Lu Jian was startled when he saw this person.
It seemed to be a woman, but her fat, round, round face, and untold chin made her head seem to be directly on her fat body.
Zhang's thick eyebrows and huge nose have to pounce on a lot of powder, making her feel weirdly white.
Lu Jian has never felt inferior because he is fat, and after seeing this woman, he suddenly had the idea of losing weight in his heart.
Ma Liu trotted to the woman, nodded and smiled: "Oh, isn't this the manager of Ma Da, why did you come to us today?"
The fat woman, known as the Grand Steward, smiled, and her voice was thicker than that of a man.
"Ma Liu, I've heard your kid talking about the sect here, what's the matter, last year's lesson still hasn't made you remember it for a long time!"
As soon as Ma Liuyi heard her mention last year's incident, his face changed drastically, and he couldn't help but slap his mouth a few times with his hand, and in an instant, his face turned red.
"Manager Ma, Sister Ma, Mama, my Ma Liu is cheap, but I really don't have the courage to talk about the sect, you can let me go!"
The fat woman snorted, walked over to the table, and sat down.
Ma Liu hurriedly poured a pot of tea for the fat woman, and begged for mercy and said good things.
Seeing that the fat woman still didn't have a good face, he sighed, Ma Liu took out a few silver carts and stuffed them into the fat woman's fat hands.
With the silver in hand, the fat woman finally had a good face.
The fat woman put away the money, took out a piece of paper and slapped it on the table and said, "This is a purchase order, you prepare the goods for me, I'm waiting here!"
Ma Liu asked in surprise: "Manager Ma, every month is purchased at the beginning of the month, why do you come to purchase again today and at the end of the month?"
The fat woman Xu was also resentful, and scolded: "I don't know if it's sent down from above!"
Ma Liu didn't dare to ask again, picked up the purchase order and went to the back to stock up.
The fat woman drank tea, saw Lu Quan, and frowned unconsciously.
She pressed to the landing, "That alien boy, what are you doing?"
Lu Jian was not annoyed, and said to her: "I came to the Horse Temple to learn art!"
"Apprenticeship?" The fat woman looked Lu Jian up and down, and said with a disdainful expression: "I see that you are black and fat, what kind of ability do you want to enter our horse temple!"
Lu Jian smiled and said: "I don't have any skills, I heard that the Horse Temple is the largest sect here, and I admired it, so I wanted to come to learn art!"
The fat woman sneered: "Our sect never accepts people with poor qualifications, I think you are still dead!"
Lu Jian smiled: "If it can't be done, why don't you try it!"
The fat woman pouted and said, "If you don't hit the south wall and don't look back, if I say you can't succeed, you will definitely not succeed!"
Suddenly, she remembered something, and asked, "But, boy, I don't have a miscellaneous man, I think you are in good shape, would you like to?"
Lu Jian shook his head: "Thank you, but I want to learn swords!"
The fat woman felt that it was rare for her to send back kindness, but this fat boy didn't appreciate it, and said angrily: "I don't know good things, I Ma Rong said that if you don't want it, then no one will dare to ask you, if you don't believe it, we'll see!"
Her fat body trembled in anger, especially the chest that rose and fell like a mountain of meat.
At this time, Na Ma Liu had already prepared the goods, filling two large baskets.
He instructed the shopkeeper to pull the goods out and put them on the donkey outside.
The fat woman Ma Rong stood up, twisted her fat body and walked out, and suddenly, she turned around and asked Lu Quan: "Boy, what's your name!"
Lu Jian smiled slightly and said, "Under Lu Press!"
Ma Rong smiled, and a lot of powder fell off her face, "I wrote it down!"
After saying that, he twisted out of the inn.
Ma Liu nodded and asked, "The purchase is complete, Manager Ma, I don't know if the payment will be returned to you for accounting?"
Ma Rong scolded: "Nonsense, do you still need to ask?"
With that, she rolled over and climbed on the donkey, and walked slowly.
Seeing that the plague god was sent away, Ma Liu snorted a few times and walked back to the inn.
Lu Jian smiled and asked Ma Liudao, "What's the matter with this Ma manager?"
Ma Liu looked left and right vigilantly, and saw that there was indeed no one else, so he whispered: "This young master, I saw that you also ate her face just now, so I am not afraid to tell you." This Tangshan murderer 。。。。。。 ”
Lu Jian said curiously: "What is the big murderer in Tangshan?"
Ma Liu said angrily: "This fat woman is huge here" After speaking, he gestured with his hand on his chest, "But her heart is very small, we people call her Tangshan Murderer, she is the head of foreign affairs of the sect, relying on her brother's power in the sect, she is short-tempered, she wants to eat and take cards for us, and she is extremely greedy for money! No, every purchase is bookkeeping, and it is not to ask for benefits when you look back?"
Thinking about it, I was usually oppressed by this Ma Rong, and every time I mentioned it, I hated it, and my voice was much higher.
Lu Jian asked curiously, "Then who is his brother?"
Ma Liu's face changed, and he didn't dare to say more: "A hall master in my sect, don't ask more, that's someone you can't afford to mess with!"
Ma Liu looked at Lu Jian again, sighed and said: "The little brother is also unlucky, he met the big murderer in Tangshan, I think you have to learn from the master to be in the soup, if this mother-in-law wears small shoes for you, then no one will dare to accept you as an apprentice."
Lu Jian said dumbly: "A foreign affairs director has such great power?"
Ma Liudao: "She may not have that much ability, but many people have to consider her brother's opinion, so it's more dangerous, who wants to offend that person for nothing."
Lu Jian sighed, thinking about it, he was helpless, why did he meet such a crazy woman.
Shaking his head, Lu Jian felt that it didn't matter, he would try it tomorrow, and if he didn't succeed, he would think of another way out.
Lu Jian thanked Ma Liu and went back to the house to live.
The next day, Lu Jian got up early.
After he packed up, he inquired about the specific address, said goodbye to Ma Liu, and set off to the place where the horse temple was located.
The scenery is good along the way, and the land pressure is moving forward slowly.
In the distance, the clouds are on the mountainside, the wind is at the foot of the mountain, and the fields are scattered nearby, and the land pressure is still in a very good mood.
Along the way, there were also young people walking in the direction of the horse temple from time to time, and Lu Jian asked, knowing that he had the same purpose as himself, and it was also the surrounding teenagers who wanted to go to the beginning to apprentice.
Lu Jian was easy-going, and soon, he got together with a few young people to chat and walk.
The horse temple is built in the middle of the mountainside of Tangshan, the road up the mountain is very smooth, the bluestone pavement, the roadside is planted with trees for summer coolness, and on the way, there is a small pavilion for resting.
Lu Jian nodded secretly, the strength of this great sect is different.
